My speakers arrived today and let me tell you they look marvelous. After setting them up watch a movie and it sounds great.
M60's are great at this point I think it would have been overkill for me to go to the M80's.
VP150 also sounds great. This is my first set of nice speakers and I know that I do not have a trained set of ears as many out there have but I could not hear what people out there say about the VP150 being bright.
QS8's really impressed me. Now I know why everyone loves these surrounrd speakers.
EP500 at first I thought they were good. I had the volume knob between 5 and 6 o'clock. Like I said it sounded good then I went and turned the knob a little past 6o'clock and I said to myself, "now thats what I'm talking about".

The whole system is impressive and I would recommend them to anyone.

Now for the minor problem. I can hear a little hum coming from the speakers. It did not bother me while watching the movie because i had it cranked up and could not hear it. I can hear it when the volume is low. I called Axiom and jo told me taht it was a groud llop issue and I should unplug everything from the receiver except the speakers and start from there eliminating possible causes. Also mentioned using an extension cord to a different outlet.
I wanted to hear any other thoughts on curing this minor problem. I really hate to unplug everything because it is in a wall unit and is way to much work. But if I have to I guess I will do it. It will have to wait til after X-mas.

Clarence, glad to hear that you're enjoying your Axioms. As to the possible groundloop hum, this can be checked in detail later, but the most common cause is a cable TV connection. So the first thing to try would be to disconnect the cable TV input(if you have cable TV).

Yes i do have a cable. Disconnect the incoming line not power line or both. If I can find time tonight i will mess with it but it looks like I would not be able to get to it til I get back from Vegas or after christmas.
Thanks all

OK guys I just got back from LA and could not wait til I come back from Vegas. Looks like the source of the hum is coming from the sub. I tried plugging it into my power conditioner and also a different outlet but the hum is still there. When the sub is off the hum is gone.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
